Patent AU-2006220546-B2 (AU)
Title: Plasma electric generation system
Inventor: GARATE EUSEBIO
IPC: G21B1/00
Filed: 2006-03-07
Granted: 2012-06-14
Abstract: A system and apparatus for controlled fusion in a field reversed configuration (FRC) magnetic topology and conversion of fusion product energies directly to electric power. Preferably, plasma ions are magnetically confined in the FRC while plasma electrons are electrostatically confined in a deep energy well, created by tuning an externally applied magnetic field. In this configuration, ions and electrons may have adequate density and temperature so that upon collisions they are fused together by the nuclear force, thus forming fusion products that emerge in the form of an annular beam. Energy is removed from the fusion product ions as they spiral past electrodes of an inverse cyclotron converter. Advantageously, the fusion fuel plasmas that can be used with the present confinement and energy conversion system include advanced (aneutronic) fuels.

Title: Support jack with supporting load indicator
Inventor: SAUPE SWEN
IPC: B60S9/08
Filed: 2006-07-20
Granted: 2012-02-02
Abstract: A support jack with a vertically telescopically displaceable supporting element (1) having an outer sleeve (2) and an inner sleeve (3) is described. For the operator, it is sometimes hard to discern whether the support jacks find an adequate abutment on the ground. In an extreme case, the support jack sinks into the ground under the load of the vehicle (14). The vehicle (14) is then no longer adequately supported and can tip over. For this reason, the object of the invention is to develop a support jack in such a way that secure standing is already discernible for the operator during extension of the supporting element. According to the invention, the object is achieved with a support jack in which a supporting load indicator (4) with a pressure element (5) is arranged on the supporting element (1), the pressure element (5) triggering a signal when a predefinable supporting force is reached.

Title: Anchoring system for a catheter
Inventor: BIERMAN STEVEN F
IPC: A61M25/02
Filed: 2006-08-31
Granted: 2012-01-12
Abstract: An anchoring system 10 secures a catheter 8 to the body of a patient and arrests axial movement of the catheter 8 without meaningfully impairing fluid flow through the catheter 8. The anchoring system 10 includes an anchor pad 12 that adheres to the patient's skin and supports a retainer 20. The retainer 20 includes interengaging structure that moves the retainer 20 between an open and a closed position. When in the open position, the retainer 20 can receive a portion of the catheter 8 and be subsequently moved to the closed position. Advantageously, the interengaging structure allows the retainer 20 to receive catheters 8 of various sizes. In some embodiments the interengaging structure includes a latch mechanism 80 having an angled opening 104 and a strap 24. The angled opening 104 is configured to receive the strap 24 when the retainer 20 is in the closed position. The retainer 20 may further include one or more retention mechanisms to further inhibit axial movement of the catheter 8 relative to the retainer 20 when the catheter 8 is secured therein. In an embodiment, the anchoring system 10 includes a mount that allows the retainer 20 to rotate relative to the anchor pad 12.

Title: Heater and furniture, wall body incorporating it
Inventor: SEMORI YOSHIO
IPC: F24C7/02
Filed: 2007-05-14
Granted: 2012-04-05
Abstract: A heater ensuring good matching when it is built in storage furniture, or the like, without impairing usability as an independent heater. The heater comprises a door (4) for opening/closing a heating compartment (3), a section (5) for controlling a heating means, and an operating section (6) for controlling driving of the heating means. The operating section (6) is constituted by providing an electrostatic switch on the inside of a semitransparent member such that light is emitted by touching the semitransparent member to be readied for receiving a switch operation. The operating section is normally invisible from the outside and thereby good matching with furniture is ensured when the heater is built in a storage furniture, or the like. Since the operating section emits light to be readied for receiving switch operation when a user touches the semitransparent member, the heater can be used similarly to a conventional apparatus and usability is not impaired.

Title: Insulin formulations for insulin release as a function of tissue glucose levels
Inventor: POHL RODERIKE
IPC: A61K38/28
Filed: 2009-01-05
Granted: 2012-11-22
Abstract: Injectable insulin formulations that are capable of modifying the amount of insulin released based on the patient's tissue glucose levels, methods for making and using these formulations are described herein. The formulation may be administered via subcutaneous, intradermal or intramuscular administration. In one preferred embodiment, the formulations are administered via subcutaneous injection. The formulations contain insulin, an oxidizing agent or enzyme and a reducing agent or enzyme, a diluent and optionally one or more thickening agents. If a thickening agent is present in the formulation, the thickening agent increases the viscosity of the formulation following administration. Preferably the formulation contains an insulin, a diluent, glucose oxidase and peroxidase. Following administration to a patient, the insulin is released from the formulations as a function of the patient's tissue glucose level, which in turn maintains the patient's blood glucose level within an optimum range. The formulation is often referred to as a "smart" formulation since it modifies its release rate of insulin according to the patient's needs at a particular time. In a preferred embodiment, the formulation is designed to release insulin into the systemic circulation over time with a basal release profile following injection in a patient. In another embodiment, the formulation is designed to release insulin into the systemic circulation over time with a non-basal release profile following injection in a patient, such as a regular human insulin release profile or a prandial release profile.
